Austin Chenoweth

Therapist

Virtual • California


I'm Austin Chenoweth, an LMFT with over four years of experience helping teens and adults work through anxiety, depression, and the deeper patterns driving them. I trained at Santa Clara University and take a relational, depth-oriented approach to therapy, which means I'm less interested in managing symptoms and more focused on understanding what's underneath them.

I see clients via telehealth throughout California, and I work with teens and older adults. I genuinely enjoy the work of therapy, and I believe the relationship we build together is the most powerful tool we have for treatment.

I’m a bilingual Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who provides therapy in both Spanish and English, from colloquial to professional levels. My work has included supporting individuals facing HIV/AIDS-related challenges, domestic violence, substance use, loneliness, suicidal thoughts, dual diagnosis, sexuality-related concerns, aging-related issues, and the broader impact these experiences can have on families and support systems. Across community, academic, and clinical settings in Mexico and the U.S., I’ve built a strong foundation in helping people navigate both personal suffering and societal distress.

What I’d like you to know is that I’m a Licensed Counselor with deep experience supporting people through tough transitions. I’ve spent my career working with at-risk youth in the foster care system, which means I’m comfortable sitting with complex emotions, navigating chaotic situations, and helping people build safety, stability, and hope. I bring that same grounded, no-judgment approach to our work together, focusing on practical steps that help you feel more in control and move toward the life you want.

Find the right addiction counselor for you

Headway makes it easier to find support for overcoming addiction — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Moreno Valley

Searching for addiction therapists in Moreno Valley starts with finding care that matches the type of support you need. Addiction care can include support for substance use, alcohol use, compulsive behaviors, relapse prevention, and co-occurring concerns like anxiety, depression, or trauma. As you compare therapists, look for training in approaches such as motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, harm reduction, or coordination with medication-assisted care. Some people may also work with a psychiatrist or other prescriber as part of their care team.

In a mid-sized city like Moreno Valley, your search may include therapists with local offices, therapists nearby in Riverside County, and virtual appointments across California. Virtual care can expand your options if local availability is limited or if your schedule makes travel harder. Along with specialty experience, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can help you see how they describe addiction care, communication style, and experience with non-judgmental, harm reduction-informed support.

Therapy in Moreno Valley can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway helps you search for addiction therapists who match your needs, review detailed bios, verify insurance, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront. From there, you can compare available therapists and book directly when you’re ready.

If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:

* 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 * SAMHSA National Helpline — 1-800-662-HELP (4357), free, confidential, 24/7 * Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741

If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
